The Bucks are No. 2 in the NBA in defensive efficiency, giving up 99.1 points per 100 possessions.

Additionally, since January 1, the team ranks first in opponents field goal percentage (41.2%), third in opponents points (92.9) and first in opponents three-point percentage (30.2%). "They care," Jason Kidd said. "They take pride in playing defense and that was one of the things we talked about starting in training camp." After winning just 15 games all of last season, Jason Kidd has the Bucks over .500, on pace to make the postseason and shatter expectations all without Larry Sanders (personal) for most of the season. Perhaps the Kidd can coach after all. Feb 9 - 10:22 AM

Bucks head coach Jason Kidd has been giving written tests to his players, according to Grantland's Zach Lowe.

Kidd gives his players a written test about strategy and basketball history every game day. The coaching staff then grades each one and keeps a running tally of player scores through the season. "I’m not gonna lie," Giannis Antetokounmpo says. "Sometimes I cheat and ask the older guys." What Alphabet doesn't realize is that Kidd is hoping the players cheat as he believes it will foster more strategy dialogue in the locker room. Tue, Dec 9, 2014 10:28:00 AM

Jason Kidd responded to Nets owner Mikhail Prokhorov's comments about his departure as Brooklyn's head coach on Tuesday.

After Prokhorov made a comment to the media that equated to Kidd not letting the door hit him on the way out of town, Kidd responded, "I'm no longer in Brooklyn. Unfortunately they keep talking about it. I don't. Now if it was me and him playing 1-on-1 on the court, that would be fine." We'll have to wait and see if Prokhorov takes Kidd up on the 1-on-1 challenge, but the back-and-forth should make the Bucks-Nets matchup on November 18 a lot more interesting.

Coach Jason Kidd said he is comfortable running a 10- or 11-man rotation with his team.

Oh boy. While there are some good educated guesses, we still can't say with 100 percent certainty what any of the starting five will be for the Bucks. The season started yesterday. Wed, Oct 29, 2014 02:41:00 PM

The red flag went up when he was "rested" last week when it wasn't because of a back-to-back. Hopefully, there is nothing wrong with his conditioning like last year, but given the strange nature of the way this is shaking out and last season, Mayo looks like a drop candidate in most leagues.

He missed Saturday due to some soreness in his knee cap and looks to be in the clear. Interestingly, every fantasy owner's favorite headache, Ersan Ilyasova, stepped up while Dudley was down, so that is the major fantasy implication here. While Dudley isn't worth owning, it'll be interesting to see what happens with Ghostface Ilya. Dudley isn't worth owning in most leagues while Ilyasova is worth a look -- add at your own risk of course.

Damien Inglis (foot) will undergo surgery on Monday, and he will be out for the remainder of the season.

Inglis didn't log a single second in his first season with the Bucks. After fracturing his right foot during a pre-draft workout, Inglis' CT scan in late-October revealed the fracture wasn't healing properly, and he'll undergo another procedure to address that.

Jabar Parker (knee surgery) was seen on the practice court with teammates and was walking without a noticeable limp.

Parker is expected to miss the rest of the 2014-15 season, but it's good news to hear that he was walking around the practice court and passing to teammates. While fantasy owners in standard leagues don't need to worry about picking up Parker this season, this is promising news for his dynasty owners.
